5. Crew (2024)
Arrey wah! Who would’ve thought we’d see Tabu, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Kriti Sanon sharing screen space?

4. Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022)
Okay, so when Alia Bhatt was cast as Gangubai, log bol rahe the, "Kya? Alia?!". But this girl silenced all her critics with a performance that bagged her a National Film Award. This biographical crime drama, directed by the maestro Sanjay Leela Bhansali, raked in Rs. 10.50 Crore on its first day. Gangubai’s journey from a trafficked woman to a powerful figure in Mumbai’s underworld is both heartbreaking and empowering. Catch it on Netflix if you haven’t already!
